“The Skoda Felicia 1.3LXi is a practical and reliable...”
The Skoda Felicia 1.3LXi is a practical and reliable car, but not for those who seek excitement. I also own a Honda Jazz, and it's interesting to compare them. Considering its image and older design, you might think the Skoda would compare poorly - but not so. The Honda has advantages in performance, economy, ventilation and refinement, but the Skoda is better in certain other areas.
Starting from the outside, this sturdily built Skoda has excellent paintwork (mine is silver) and after...

I had a 98 Felicia 1.3 GLi, the one with power steering, until trading it in last October for a Fabia after 50 000 miles, and concur with everything in this review. Even my headlight aim system failed! Probably the most reliable car I've ever owned: in six years it only failed to start once: the battery was low and it turned out the thermostat was failing too. Great load carrier, (several camping trips with bikes on the roof) and we got 40mpg overall. There are still lots of these on the secondahand market at very low prices. Ours went to a friend whose daughter is learning to drive in it. Needless to say they like it and thought it well worth buying.

“I have been 3 times to the south of France, York...”
I have been 3 times to the south of France, York around 20 times, at least 6 trips to northern Scotland. I have transported loads of people with my job, and used it as a furniture removals van on so many occasions I could not list them all.

Tyres around 23,000 fronts 60,000 rears
Total spent apart from tyres exhausts servicing etc:

“Skoda Felicia GLXI City Car, ”
Skoda Felicia GLXI City Car,
Excellent value, no street cred so no theft risk and no bother from plod. Good MPG, reasonable performance and low service costs. Brick solid car with excellent build quality but very 'grey plastic' inside.
Problems with alternator, fixed on warranty within first year. Repeated 2 years later which seems to indicate a problem here. Car bought from new 1999 and now has 98,000 miles and still going well with original clutch. Needs regular servicing 10k and...

“I bought my Red Skoda Felicia 1300L in June 1999 so it...”
I bought my Red Skoda Felicia 1300L in June 1999 so it is now 5 years old and looking like new!
Initially I was doing over 10,000 miles a year but in the last year or so only under 2000 miles.
All through the winter it started first time and drives just as well if not better than when I first picked it up. I did change the front tyres to Michelins and that has improved the steering for parking and handling too. It loves motorways and I'm never too tired after a long journey. It's so economical...

I had my first Skoda Felica for 8 years. It originally had 53,000 careful miles from an elderly couple,I bought it, and in those 8 years added another 100,000. Hard driving miles. Burned everything at the lights, naturally they caught me up! But no-one beat me off the lights or roundabouts, what fun, a lady in Skoda, leaving everything else standing until the outrage hit the oher driver, then they got me, but oh the fun. No problem whatsoever. Good roadholding and I should know! It never broke down, jump started many other newer cars. Cheap parts, easy access to the engine. And every mile was fast and hard. It was a joy to own. I wept when it finally failed the MOT. I now have another, same again. Fantastic.I can cram in three bales of hay for my horse and 5 bales of shavings, plus harness, and sacks of horse feed. not bad aye for a 15 year old, once laughed at Skoda.
